Description:
A vulnerability has been identified in certain versions of BEA WebLogic Server and Express, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain knowledge of sensitive information.
The problem is that the Node Manager Keyfile password is passed on the command line in plain text. Anyone with access to the machine can therefore gain knowledge of this by using various tools to view the command line of other machines.
The following versions are affected:
- WebLogic Server and Express 6.1 (all platforms)
- WebLogic Server and Express 7.0 and 7.0.0.1 (all platforms)
NOTE: The vulnerability only occurs when the Node Manager is in use and users other than those in WebLogic Server Admin and Operator roles have access to process listings on the machine.
